Instead of going to capital ex like I planned several people have mentioned that they wouldn't mind going to taste of Edmonton instead. It is from 11:00 am to 11:00 pm so there will be plenty of time to get there and mill around. I think day wise people mentioned that either Monday or Wednesday would be fine. Since Monday is tomorrow and this is pretty last minute I think Wednesday or later would be better. You know the routine phone me if interested and we'll try to put all the details together.

PARAS i forgot to ask you yesterday about your Server services. Taylor and I are currently contracted to do a site so we'll need to know the specs and how much you'd charge. thanks

aw, that's a real bummer... I went outside with a bowl to pick the raspberries in my garden, but the heat from yesterday shrivelled them all up! THAT SUCKS.

not sure if it's as immediately gratifying as kish kash ever was... but maybe it needs time to grow on me.

here's where you can get the basement jaxx torrent:

but, Taylor, the likelihood of it being that personally relevant are rather small. I mean, how many kids have a hookah? and besides, parents aren't usually concerned about the kids' belongings, it's their own they're after protecting... though I can see the merit in saying something like "... or you'll break a lamp" but mostly it comes out as "because I said so" and that, while being the ultimate parent-rule justification doesn't help us prepare for the longterm personal consequences when we try to do things for ourselves.

my particular section of the "because I said so" rule connundrum happens to be room cleaning... 'cause it's one thing when you're eight to be told that all your cars with wheels need to be moved or someone's going to step on them, slip and fall, and a completely other thing when the room's just a hideous mess and anyone visiting it surmises that not only are you a slob but you "must be depressed" because you don't appear to care what your room looks like. who knew there'd be such implications for just not having enough time to deal with all the stuff that's accumulated over the summer? And, it's a perfect example of the need for personal relevance. "Clean up or people are going to think you're a basket case" is a much more motivating direction than "those stuffed animals need to get off the floor or else" because, who has stuffed animals any more anyway?

well, in my defense, I am not a basket case (I don't think!), but I sure as hell don't have the time right now to clean up and prove it. ... goin' to GP tomorrow, whee! another week sucked into the vacuum of scientific research...

Good luck pickin' up the pieces of your hookah
